Remember, this car has MUCH less sound deadening than most any other car you'd buy these days. It keeps the weight down as well as cutting a bit of cost. But the trade off is increased noise from the drivetrain and road.
i personally like that you can hear everything, adds to the cars raw driving experience!!! yes the noise is normal, change the tires and itll go away, or if you get better tires it may get louder because of more grip lol
